Hi All, I need a file which I can import to MS Word, I'm trying win.metafile(), but it does not seem to support multiple print commands at once (please see below). Is there an alternative to get plots file which can be used in powerpoint/word? # R code: # this does not work; but same thing works with pdf() library(lattice) win.metafile("test.wmf") p1 <- xyplot(decrease ~

Hi All: I'm using win.metafile() to produce windows metafiles. When I use Word to insert the wmf picture, Word gives an error! I did my homework in posting this question, and couldn't find a fix. Any suggestions? Phil Smith CDC

Platform: Windows 95 Version : R0641 Problem : I wish to plot and save a large number of graphics files in windows metafont format. I have a very crude postscript printing function, which happily handles repeated calls: psf<-function(filename){ dev.print(postscript,file=paste(sep="",filename,".ps"),horizontal=F) return() } To produce metafont files, I

Hi there! I have following problem: I created some graphics with "win.metafile", which I wanted to use in a Powerpoint presentation, but when I paste them into Powerpoint the graphics are missing the axes. It looks like the axes are cut off and I was wondering, if somebody know this problem and how to solve this?? Thanks for your help! :) win.metafile("example.wmf", width=7,

Hi all, I recently discovered how great win.metafile is for getting high resolution graphics into word. Having problems with specifying families though... #pdf works fine pdf("test.pdf",width=14,height=9) par(family="Helvetica") plot(1:10) text(4,4,"trial") dev.off() windows 2 #metafile doesnt like helvetica family

Hi, how can I save an image as a metafile? I know within windows you can do a right click and then 'save image as metafile' but I use Mac OS X...I know as well that mac users have a right click as well, but it does not work. Is there a command in R for saving images as metafiles? Regards, mentor -- View this message in context:

I am having trouble getting smooth-appearing curves in figures produced as windows metafiles using R (R-1.1.1 on Windows 98). When I import them into a word processor (either MS Word 97, or WordPerfect 9.0), the figures appear only slightly bumpy on screen, but when printed, there is a clear jaggedness reminiscent of aliasing. Is there a fix for this (if the answer is "upgrade to 1.2",

Dear R-listers, I got an error when I try to plot two grouped data into a single win.metafile device: library(lattice) trellis.device(device="win.metafile",color=F,filename="Profiles-Var1.wmf") par(mfrow=c(1,2)) # First plot xyplot(log(v)~t|id,data=Con.20, main="Group A: Control, Var-1", xlab="ocasion",ylab="var1", panel=function(x,y) {

Hi Folks, I need help with a query about R on Windows, specifically about graphics devices. I'm advising someone remotely (so it's all by email) who is running R on Windows, while I am not (Linux only). Things have reached the stage where saving graphics plots as Windows metafiles is looming. I've been told that the result of "?device" in Windows is as follows (which is

Hi Folks, I see that people have been discussing the win.metafile device on the list since before 2000. Yet I have never seen this on a Linux distribution of R. Is this because the device works by making calls (GPL calls of course!) to a proprietary Windows library? In that case I can understand that it would be far from kosher to implement it on Linux. But I'd like confirmation. I must

My apriori apologies if this is felt to be the wrong list for this issue - although it starts with R, it's a combination of programs that creates the problem. Currently we are using windows metafile format for in-text tables for reports created in Word. However, we've discovered some artifactual lines being created in our final output once the Word document is changed to PDF. The process

As a followup to a previous posting regarding the win.metafile() function, I've been having some problems as well. In my case, I've been converting some scripts from S-SPLUS to R that create graphs in order to take advantage of R's plotmath capabilities. In the sample code shown below, the axis labels display the units for the data. In particular, the units for the y axis are

Hi R users, I'm working on a autoreporting with the batch mode of R: I would like to save the graphs produced in wmf or emf. the problem is, it's working well with the R gui because we print on the screen the graph devices but not with the batch. I have used the function dev.print after encounter problem with win.metafile. Thanks Guillaume [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi all, I'm having a problem creating png images with trellis.device. I would like to create many plots with a white background using a sequence number in the file argument (i.e. "%02d"). The first plot is as expected with a white background. However, the second and all subsequent plots have a gray background. I would like all plots to have a white (or transparent)

When I export a graphic into a windows metafile, import that file into a Word document, the width of the character of my title isn’t uniform anymore. The only way I found for solving this problem is to use the courier font, but I would like to use a font like (font.main=1). Does anybody know about that problem? obs<-matrix(scan("D:\\.....) win.metafile(filename =

Hi All, Can anyone please help me with getting a "single title" and "legend" for both the plots in the following R code.

Hello all: I have searched through the help files and I have been unsuccessful in solving this problem. I am trying to create a small wrapper function that will go around a call to a plot function and create a windows metafile in the directory and also write the name of the file to a text file. The purpose is to efficiently bring a large number of plots into powerpoint. I am using

This problem was posted a couple years ago here: http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/04/01/0231.html Using Windows XP with R 2.3.1, I am now experiencing the same problem again: when a plot is saved and/or copied as a WMF, the labels do not have the correct character spacing. I am trying to insert the WMF into a MS Word 2003 document (my first mistake, I know), but even when the WMF is
